KMC 21047

Offered for sale as a purebred, registered Katahdin ewe, $325

Sturdy black-faced ewe.  Balanced but modest EBVs except she comes from a high prolificacy dam line. Pedigree is a blend of Birch Cove Farm (David Coplen, Missouri), Lyn Fahrmeier (Missouri), Misty River Farm (Mary Bakko, Moses Lake, now retired), and KRK (Karen Kenagy, Oregon). Lambing record starting as a yearling: 2/1, 2/0, 2/2. She had some bad luck, lost one twin to clostridium in 2022 (no fault of hers), and had a twin pregnancy in 2023, one fetus perished early and the other lamb was big and died of dystocia during a night birth. This year she’s doing great with a set of twins.

Photo taken August 2024. EBVs from 2024 lamb crop BWT data.  She is NSIP genotyped. She has a ewe and ram lamb at side that will be weaned mid August.
